Goals Design Guidelines for Applying Triangulation
Credibility / Internal Validity
  • Is what we're intending to measure actually being measured?
  • User perspective: Use all available research about users to ensure scenarios are written from the user's perspective.
  • Pilot: Run a pilot test with an actual user – and seek feedback on the relevance of question wording and scenarios.
  • Independent review: Get an independent researcher to check what you are measuring, keeping in mind the goals of the research.
Transferability / External Validity
  • Is what we're actually measuring applicable to the broader real world?
  • User perspective: Use all available research about users to ensure scenarios are realistic for users.
  • Pilot: Run a pilot test with an actual user – and seek feedback on how realistic the questions and scenarios are.
  • Independent review: Get an independent researcher to check what you are measuring, keeping in mind the goals of the research.
  • Context: Make the testing environment as realistic as possible for users – use their equipment if possible; at a minimum, use the same browser, operating system, and screen resolution.
  • Environment: Make sure that what you're testing with is as indicative as possible of what users will eventually experience (albeit in line with the design phase you're at – if a prototype, make it the best one that can be produced).
Dependability / Reliability
  • If we did this study again, would we get the same results?
  • Triangulate: Multiple methods, datasets, researchers, and theories – throw it all into your triangulation funnel!
  • Sample size: Where budget allows – use an appropriate sample size for valid results.
  • Second opinion: At a minimum – use another researcher to review your process and findings; ideally, also conduct the research together.
  • Test again: As most good UX experts know… test… and retest! Or at least, try to conduct research in distinct phases with feedback loops.

Success stories

“

The course was packed full of useful information and tools/tips. It is very timely with the work we need to do in the coming months.

Jenny Hughes

SA Government

“

The course is everything it promised to be - skills focused in a highly practical and process-driven way, aptly grounded in theory and focused on the craft rather than specific tools. The quality of engaged feedback and guidance is a strong indicator of the PeakXD team's collective experience, professionalism, and mentoring culture.

UX Accelerator Alumni

“

The UX Accelerator program is fantastic for all skill levels within the UX discipline. As a beginner, there is more than enough information and support to get you started. While as a more experienced UX designer, the course content and exercises assist in sharpening your skills and provide great exposure to new or unfamiliar areas.
